C>Lemon's Nominally Commercial 19 (first car)

[jay]

its only a windscreen after all chap, no need to get rid of her, would be nice to see a silver one at our meets,

 

[C>Lemon]

True, but for a penniless student such as myself it's a definite barrier. Anyway, maybe it's not so bad.

I'd love to come to the meets. I notice a few Irish members, I don't suppose any of them happen over here?

slide the mirror base up towards the roof it'll come off, might need to tap it with something gently like a screwdriver handle

A slice of lemon and salt is good to get the odours out of your fridge as well.

Slice of lemon in a bowl of water in the microwave helps soften any mess inside it but also freshens it up.

Tomorrow on good housekeeping how to use your tights for a robbery :lol:

 

[C>Lemon]

Thanks for the advice.



Good Housekeeping?

Very good.

 

[C>Lemon]

Mini-update.

 

[Chris H]

it won't break completely, the cracks will get bigger but it won't cave in or anything like that

 

[C>Lemon]

Well, that does make me feel better. Thanks. I'll leave it alone for now.

 

[C>Lemon]

Even smaller update.

 

[C>Lemon]

Super-teeny-weeny update.

 

[C>Lemon]

Same-page update with pictures.

Re. page 6: The rust is not too serious in those places. The rusty exhaust manifold is normal. The white on the aluminium castings is normal oxidation. The oval plate should be on the offside of the bonnet slam panel, it's held on by rivets in each corner so look for the holes if it's not there.

Thanks for the clarification, The T.I.B.

I'll check the door jamb.

 

[C>Lemon]

Another same-page update. Page is about the right size now, at last.

[C>Lemon]

Thanks, bidderman.

im enjoying this project, i actually really want my silver ones back as a result of it, it's an inpiration

 

[C>Lemon]

Stop it, you're making me blush. I haven't even done anything.

 

[lewis77]

I was but my mum paid it through her insurance. Your best bet is to get one off a broken 19 or eBay, don't buy new can be expensive, unless you find the right company.

 

[C>Lemon]

Eh?
Are you talking about the windscreen?

 

[Larry]

so when comes the van conversion mate? you going to just spray the insides of the windows and stick wood panneling in behind them?
